Abstract

|
|
Displaced central acetabular fracture-dislocations are serious injuries often resulting in permanant disability and occassionally death.
The aim of the treatment must be the restoration of hip function which require accurate anatomical reduction and firm fixation followed by early exercise.
Sixteen central fracture-dislocations of the acetabulum were followed from 6 months to 48 months(average 16 months). All had primary attempt at closed reduction by our wire fixation method. Satisfactory results were obtained in 81% of all
patients.
Operative complications included osteoarthritis(3 cases), sciatic nerve palsy (3 cases), infection( 1 case), and avascular necrosis of the femeoral head(1 case).
